The sun is out, the snow has melted and spring training is under way. This past weekend we were able to reset our clocks, allowing us an extra hour of afternoon golf... I mean daylight. The seemingly never-ending grey deathscape of winter is beginning to finally fade away.
As if in a trance, I have found myself cleaning up my backyard, trying on shorts, dusting off my clubs and eying potential Mets tickets. The Hot Stove has been extinguished and baseball games, although meaningless, are underway. I am beginning to find that I am more often in a better mood than I was just a month ago.
There is a reason we love spring. It means we get to go outside and play again. A round of golf, a game of softball, a match of tennis or even, ugh, a nice run.
I am awaiting that fresh smell of pollen and fresh cut grass, kids carrying baseball gloves and lacrosse sticks through the neighborhood, sun actually shining directly on my forearms.
Can you feel it? Are you itching to get outside and play?
Well, there’s a forecast of snow showers this Saturday.
